DIRECTIONS FOR USE
RESTRAINTS:
DO NOT apply to weeds which may be stressed (not actively growing) due to prolonged periods of extreme cold, moisture
stress (water-logged or drought affected), poor nutrition, presence of disease, or previous herbicide treatment as reduced
levels of control may result.
DO NOT spray if rain is likely within 1 hour or if foliage is wet from rain and dew. However, when tank mixed with
glyphosate, this time extends to 6 hours.
DO NOT burn off, cut or clear blackberry or other woody weeds for 6 months after spraying.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
APPLICATION
COMPATIBILITY
1. WOODY WEED SITUATIONS
Weeds need to be actively growing for herbicides to
have optimum effect. Delay treatment until all
regrowth has had time to grow to one metre high in
situations which have been bulldozed, slashed,
burnt, ploughed or areas having a previous chemical
treatment.
A.High Volume Spraying
• Thorough coverage of foliage and stems to the point
of runoff is essential, however, avoid excess spraying
which is wasteful of chemical.
Hand Gun
• Apply the recommended mix to give full coverage
of leaves and stems through a No. 6 to 8 tip at
700 to 1500 kPa.
• A spray volume of 3,000 to 4,000 L per infested
hectare (30 to 40 L/100 m2) should be used on the
weed infestation.
Knapsack & 12 volt Sprayer Packs
• Only recommended for the control of herbaceous
weeds such as capeweed, horehound and saffron
thistle. DO NOT use knapsacks or 12 volt sprayer
packs to treat woody weed infestations.
B.Aerial Application
• Apply in 100 to 200 L water/ha. Use a calibrated aircraft
to apply in half overlap passes. Nozzle configurations
should produce a COARSE spray quality at the target
(ASABE S572).
• The potential for damage from drift can be greatly
reduced by avoiding unsuitable spraying conditions
and using spray pressure and nozzles to minimise
the production of small droplets.
• DO NOT spray when wind exceeds 15 km/hr, air
temperature is above 30°C or low humidity
conditions (<35%).
C.Controlled Droplet Application (C.D.A.)
• Results similar to high volume spraying can be
obtained using Micron Herb® or similar equipment.
Select a nozzle to give a flow rate of 2 mL/sec and
sweeping action of approximately 1 m/sec to ensure
a droplet density of 20/cm2. Use a marking agent as
recommended by the equipment manufacturers, to
check spray coverage. Also, consult directions
provided with C.D.A. unit.
D.Low Volume High Concentrate Application
Techniques
• Good control will be achieved, similar to high volume
application, where bush size enables good
coverage of the bush. Use a marking agent, as
recommended by the equipment manufacturers,
to check spray coverage.
• Gas powered gun: Apply 50 mL shots to obtain
uniform coverage of 4 to 5 m2 of surface area of
bush. This relates to 20 droplets/cm2 of leaf surface.
• Sprinkler sprayer: This technique involves using
a micro sprinkler which is connected to a hollow

MINIMUM RECROPPING PERIODS
Before using Garlon™ 600 in tank mixes with other
herbicides, check the plant-back information on all product
labels. The time between spraying and planting will be
determined by the product with the longest plant-back
period.
Observe the following recropping periods for Garlon™ 600:
• wheat, barley, sorghum, maize
• chickpeas, soybeans, sunflowers
• cotton
7 days
7 days
14 days
MIXING
Half fill the spray unit with water and add the required
amount of Garlon™ 600. Add the remaining water with the
agitator running. If required, then add crop oils or wetters
(surfactants). Maintain mechanical or by-pass agitation in
the spray tank during spraying. Only mix sufficient solution
for immediate daily use and avoid storing.
Basal Bark and Cut Stump Application: Quarter fill the
spray unit or mixing container with diesel and add the
required amount of Garlon™ 600. Add the remaining diesel
and shake or agitate thoroughly to mix the contents.
Periodically shake or agitate to stop product settling out.
Only mix sufficient solution for immediate daily use and
avoid storing.

fibre glass rod attached to a pressure knapsack
sprayer. Use at low pressures (50 to 200 kPa) and
apply with a slow sweeping action over the top of the
plants ensuring even coverage on the leaves.
E. Basal Bark and Cut Stump Treatment
• Mix Garlon™ 600 in diesel. The use of diesel as a
herbicide carrier may affect the rubber seals in some
sprayers. To avoid this, use sprayers which use Viton®
seals and fittings. When using Garlon™ 600 with
diesel, nitrile/neoprene gloves should be worn
instead of rubber gloves.
Basal Bark Method
• DO NOT apply to wet stems as this can repel the diesel
mixture. Apply only with hand-directed equipment such
as a pressure sprayer or a paint brush. Spray
equipment should be used at low pressures, up to
200 kPa, to avoid excessive splashing or drift. Species
with old, rough bark require more thorough wetting
than smooth barked species. Liberally spray or paint
the bark around the stem from ground level up to
30 cm high, wetting thoroughly to the point of runoff
(unless otherwise stated).
Cut Stump Method
• Stems should be cut less than 15 cm above the
ground. Immediately apply Garlon™ 600/diesel
mixture liberally to the freshly cut stump by spray
or painting the cut surface and sides of the stem.
2. CROPPING/FALLOW SITUATIONS
A.Boom Application
• Application of Garlon™ 600 in a minimum spray
volume of 50 L/ha is recommended. Use nozzles that
produce a MEDIUM to COARSE spray quality at the
target (ASABE S572).
• Boom height must be set to ensure double overlap of
nozzle patterns.
B.Aerial Application
• DO NOT allow Garlon™ 600 to physically drift onto
desirable plants.
• Aircraft may be used to apply Garlon™ 600 in fallow
situations, when ground application equipment cannot
be used due to prolonged wet conditions.
• A minimum spray volume of 35 L/ha should be used
with nozzles that produce a MEDIUM to COARSE spray
quality (ASABE S572) at the target are recommended.
• DO NOT apply Garlon™ 600 by aircraft unless wind
speed is more than 3 km/hr and less than 15 km/hr as
measured at the application site and/or air temperature
is above 30°C. Avoid application when relative humidity
falls below 35%.
• Human flagging is not authorised unless protected by
engineering controls such as vehicles with cabs.
CLEANING SPRAY EQUIPMENT
WATER-BASED CLEANING
Rinsing

spray to circulate the washing solution throughout the
sprayer and spray the solution through the nozzle. Rinse
well with clean water to remove detergent.
To clean brushes and container, spray liberally with
degreaser. Hose off thoroughly with clean water and repeat
using detergents (see above).
DO NOT use this equipment for any other purpose.
RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING
Garlon™ 600 Herbicide is a member of the pyridines group
of herbicides. The product has the disrupters of plant cell
growth mode of action. For weed resistance management,
the product is a Group I herbicide.
Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to the
product and other disrupters of plant cell growth herbicides
may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed
population. The resistant individuals can eventually
dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used
repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by
this product or other disrupters of plant cell growth
herbicides.
Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect
prior to use, Dow AgroSciences accepts no liability for any
losses that may result from the failure of this product to
control resistant weeds.
Strategies to minimise the risk of herbicide resistance are
available. Contact your farm chemical supplier, consultant,
local Department of Agriculture, or local Dow AgroSciences
representative.
The method of disposal of the container depends on the
container type. Read the STORAGE and DISPOSAL
instructions on the label that is attached to the container.
SPILL AND LEAK MANAGEMENT
Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Wear a face
shield or goggles, overalls buttoned to neck and wrist,
chemical resistant gloves and footwear. Stop leak when safe
to do so. Dam area and prevent entry into waterways, and
drains.
